The best wat to cook brussels sprouts is almost the same way you cook carp.
Place the brussels sprouts on a pine board, cover with melted cheese, add salt and pepper to taste, sprinkle with brown sugar and stick in some cloves. Bake for 1 hour at 500 degrees, scrape burnt black stuff off the board and eat the board.
Well, well Johnny, tell us how to cook an artichoke, or Poke Salad, Craw Dads or Okra. Don't forget to warn us about cooking Cat Fish and the chance of getting a needle bone in the roof of the mouth.
I can tell you to never eat the brain of a Lobster but folks from Thailand do eat their eyes with no problem.
I can tell you how to keep Okra from becoming slimy, something I found out and passed on to the Southerners that surprised them.
Only lately that Yankees are growing Collards, and Mustard greens, I tried out Turnip greens and fell in love with them. Few up here cook radish greens, I did and none of the kids believed me as it was as good as spinach.
I hold the line with Sushi and sea weed, lots of people will eat raw fish, or living Oysters, I except for steak want my food cooked, steak Med rare.
Never know when a cook --a good one--- can make Rock Soup a favorite with you.
So now, how does one eat a Craw Dad, like a lobster, do you eat the shell ????
